Verses:

C#5           A5        C#5           B5     C#5           A5         B5
/ x x / x x / /     /   / x x / x x / /      / x x / x x / /  /   /   /

Note: Here, the 'x' means palm mute the chord.

During the solo play the first half of the verse part, then play

Ab5                             E5                    F#5
/ x x / x x / x x / x x x x x x /       /      /      /

That covers most of the song. Listen to it a few times to find out
where everything fits, and for correct timing.

To all those reading, I am still looking for Tell Me by Stevie Ray
Vaughn (from the Texas Flood album), and Don't Care from Obituary's
new album. Someone out there must know how to play these songs...
